Episode 3005: Dr. Jennifer Fraser explores how modern brain science reveals the lasting neurological harm caused by adult bullying toward children and teens. She challenges the cultural myths that excuse harsh behavior as “tough love” and explains why empathy, psychological safety, and compassionate leadership are essential for healthy brain development and long-term well-being. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.livehappy.com/the-impact-of-adult-bullying-on-childrens-developing-brains Quotes to ponder: "Science has informed us that all forms of bullying and abuse harm brains. Now it’s up to us to take this empowering, inspiring knowledge and change our conduct." "We can work together to role-model empathy, thoughtfulness, and compassion so that our child populations learn a new way of being in the world, a far healthier, happier, and more high-performing way, grounded in brain science and advanced through the adults concerned by the normalized bullying in society" "A teen or twenty-something may look like an adult, but their brains are not yet mature and they have heightened sensitivity to their environment and peer relationships."
